<DIV><SPAN class=758203419-14122006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am sorry to be the
bearer of the sad news that Mari's Mum, Alma, passed away peacefully today at
11.35 pm. </FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>This morning she appeared very weak and took only a
few mouthfuls of porridge. She <SPAN class=758203419-14122006>was barely
</SPAN>conscious <SPAN class=758203419-14122006>the whole day.</SPAN>
Mari <SPAN class=758203419-14122006>w</SPAN>as by her side the entire day
and our doctors Nandakumar and Shyla came up in the morning<SPAN
class=758203419-14122006> and Shyla stayed over with us</SPAN>. The entire day
people from our team have been streaming in to see Mummy. We are very blessed to
have such dear friends and such a loving and close family. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><SPAN class=758203419-14122006>She seemed to
hang in there the entire day just so that she could see her grandchildren. Tariq
arrived at about 5.00 pm. Tarsh waited in Bangalore for Tahira who flew in from
Mumbai and they arrived a little past 11pm. She showed that she
</SPAN>recognised them, turned her head which she hadn't moved almost the entire
day, and looked at them and squeezed their hands. About 20 minutes later she was
gone - peacefully - with all of us around her.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Betty is not able to come in time and as we don’t
have a morgue here, we will be going ahead with funeral tomorrow
evening.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Please keep Mari, Joss and Betty in your
prayers</FONT></P></SPAN></DIV>
